In drug therapy using mostly synthetics, we concentrate only on one chemical, even though we can\u2019t control its purity. For example, psilocybin may contain 1% LSD or other highly active psychedelics for whatever reason. This will totally mess up the scientific nature of our therapeutic process because now our test object\/material (psilocybin) is no longer a pure constant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
How do we assess its outcome? Statistics? I guess that is what we usually see and experience \u2013 more and deeper holes (i.e., specializations) to justify our inability to see the reality in our healthcare system involving multi-elements. Instead, we follow our own interests (more hole-digging or specializations to satisfy our own individual interests, never mind the scenery above ground (our total health)! Which is why for the special interests of money and self gratification of a few, we have ignored our true healthcare for all. Instead of benefiting our nation of all citizens, like with free universal healthcare, we have chosen the vicious cycle (VC) of synthetic drug therapy that benefits only the drug makers and their interdependent associates, including insurers, promoters\/advertisers\/pushers, and crooked politicians, all in the name of democracy or freedom to choose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now, with our nation controlled by a few moneyed individuals, where is our democracy? Especially all our legislators have voted themselves perks like free healthcare and terms with no limits. Some are also so corrupt that they dare not challenge our president and his family who openly make big money on our dime. What kind of American democracy is that? Sorry about bringing this up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unlike synthetic drug therapy, our traditional medicines (herbs) have evolved in a very different path. It\u2019s not just days, months or even a century. It is experience based on long-term trial and error, accompanied by its wisdom over time immemorial. This trial-and-error process is also used by modern drug therapy. Except it is only after a modern drug has gone through the usual testing in vitro, in vivo, in small creatures, and then successful human clinical-trial, then the trial-and-error step starts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In recent years, maybe up to 3 generations or 90 years, we have observed some \u2018long-term\u2019 effects of modern synthetic drugs. For our older folks, you may remember the Thalidomide tragedy of the 1950s-1960s. Many thousands of pregnant women in Europe who had taken Thalidomide gave birth to thousands of deformed babies. Now this same drug is being developed for promoting new blood vessel growth in healing tissues and others. So, more hole-digging and concentrating in smaller areas with no overall view of our body and whole health! All I can see is more trouble ahead, with more specialists who have no idea what is involved in total good health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The science of our healthcare system is so monetized that our deep holes (specializations) may end up burying us in a couple of more generations. Unless we recognize this and start taking the best of modern drug therapy and complement it with the tried-and-true traditional herbal medicines along with nutrition, exercises, and avoiding fast foods that are loaded with inherently toxic additives and supplements made from toxic fossil fuels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
